Vintage US Military Bayonets

The US Army has a long history of using bayonets as a standard-issue weapon for their soldiers. A bayonet is a type of knife that can be attached to the muzzle of a rifle, allowing it to be used as a close-quarters combat weapon.

Over the years, the US Army has used various types of bayonets, each with its own unique design and features. Some of the most famous US Army bayonets include:

  • M1 Bayonet: This was the standard-issue bayonet used by the US Army during World War II and the Korean War. It features a 10-inch blade, a black plastic handle, and a locking mechanism that allows it to be attached to an M1 Garand rifle.

  • M7 Bayonet: This was the standard-issue bayonet used by the US Army during the Vietnam War. It features a 6.75-inch blade, a black plastic handle, and a locking mechanism that allows it to be attached to an M16 rifle.

  • M9 Bayonet: This is the current standard-issue bayonet used by the US Army. It features a 7-inch blade, a black synthetic handle, and a locking mechanism that allows it to be attached to an M16 or M4 rifle.
